Currently unable to accept new clients. Are you looking to better understand yourself and your experiences? Therapy can be an opportunity to explore connections between your past and present, uncover new insights, and move toward a more integrated and whole sense of self. As a relational therapist my role is to provide a supportive space that honors your unique experiences. I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming licensed therapist in Pennsylvania who approaches treatment from a psychodynamic perspective.
My practice is based on the idea that a person’s past and present are connected, that individuals contain complex inner worlds, and that growth can occur through insight and self knowledge. As a psychodynamic therapist my work focuses on deep, authentic, and individualized exploration.
Therapy is a personal journey, which is different for everyone. It is my honor to help explore what therapy can be for you in a way that builds a sense of safety and trust. I invite you to reach out via email to schedule an initial consultation call to determine if I'm a fit for what you're looking for.
